I don't think so. The only time you incur charges for sending books you already own to a Kindle is if you are not in the US when you receive the books. In that case Amazon charges a delivery surcharge. This is what "Free 3G" is all about. There is no reason to attach your Kindle to your computer to transfer books already purchased unless you are not in either 3G or EDGE/GPSR network range.
